One of our articles has been linked to on a racist forum, subsequently a narrow minded comment was left on the article which we have removed.

But that can't stop people on that forum from clicking on the link to our site from that forum, which you can see here.

The article gets consistent passing traffic so we would rather not have to change the slug to disable the link but is there any way of stopping any inbound traffic from that site particular forum?

I am just not Homophobic. Thought it was more an insult to others. I deleted and blocked the chap. In my Country this talk COULD get you into a court. I don't know other cultures and how they deal with oppression of any kind. Even this sort.

From a blogging standpoint, the convention wisdom is that that person making those distasteful/inappropriate remarks are entitled to make them unless and until it potentially breaches the law. If the defamation gets serious, I would suggest you seek professional legal help. Sorry, not much help, I know.

No doubt about it primitive thinkers on this planet have a right to say whatever they want in private spaces and places, but that right does not extend to advocating violence of any kind directed towards any race or identifiable group of human beings in public spaces and places within democratic nations. Advocating the mass killing of any race or identifiable group of human beings in public spaces and places is against the law in all democracies.

Thank you, that's what I was looking for. I will try this immediately.

@invisiblemikey
The owner of the website makes racist and degrading statements in several comments on his blog, as well as encouraging the racist comments of the other users.

It is true that I created an account for the purpose of reporting this site after I saw it. I can assure you that I don't hold a "personal grudge" against the owner of the blog, it's just that I don't respond well to a site advocating the killing of all Jews.

Sun, 19 Aug 2012 19:12:37 +0000invisiblemikey980912@https://en.forums.wordpress.com/After looking at the two web sites mentioned, I believe the original poster of this complaint (Ellen) is over-reacting, and falsely describing the "Tonka Report" blog site.

First off, the racist content was reactions in the form of comments made by others in response to an article on the blog. The blog itself consists entirely of reprinted material and reposted YouTube clips from conservative and/or conspiracy theory outlets. There's no significant original content at all. It's sort of a low-rent version of Fox News. So, to what extent is the guy who's getting all the content from elsewhere also responsible for the reactions of any idiot that reads and reacts to it impolitely?

Secondly, the only content at Ellen's web site is a single screen shot of the racist comments. Why would you establish a blog for that alone? This leads me to believe that Ellen may be someone with a personal grudge against this stevenjohnhibbs guy. Otherwise, why lie about his content?
